Answer:

manifest, latent

Step-by-step explanation:

According to psychoanalytic theory a person's mental issues can be resolved by making their unconscious thoughts conscious. This gives a view of the issues that are the cause of the problems. With respect to the underlying issues the treatment is administered.

When it comes to dreams what is seen in the dreams or the surface description is the manifest content.

The meaning behind the dreams or the hidden meaning is called the latent content.
